The effect of rotation has been investigated with emphasis on the impact of blade geometry on the “correction factor” in stall models. The data used came from field tests and wind tunnel experiments performed by the National Renewable Energy Laboratory and were restricted to the steady-state nonyawed conditions. Three blade layouts were available; a blade with constant chord without twist (phase II), a blade with constant chord and twist (phases III and IV), and a tapered blade with twist (phase VI). Effects due to twist and taper were determined from comparison of c n between the different blade layouts. The formulation of the stall model was rewritten so that the measured c n values could be used without reference to 2D airfoil performance. This enabled a direct comparison of the normal force characteristics between the four blade stations of the selected blade configurations. In particular, the correction term f used in stall models for rotational effects was analyzed. The comparison between the test results with a straight and a twisted blade showed that a relation for twist + pitch is required in f . In addition, a dependency offon the angle-of-attack was identified in the measurements and it is recommended that this dependency be incorporated in the stall models.

This paper reports the overall thermal performance of a cylindrical parabolic concentrating solar water heater (CPCSWH) with inserting nail type twisted tape (NTT) in the copper absorber tube for the nail twist pitch ratios 4.787, 6.914 and 9.042 respectively. The experiments are conducted for a constant volumetric water flow rate and during the time period 9:00 h to 15:00 h. The useful heat gain, hourly solar energy collected and hourly solar energy stored of this solar water heater are found higher for nail twist pitch ratio 4.787. The above said parameters are found to be a peak at noon and observed to follow the path of variation of solar intensity. At the starting of the experiment, the value of charging efficiency is observed to be maximum. Whereas the maximum value of instantaneous efficiency and overall thermal efficiency are observed at noon. The key finding is that the nail twist pitch ratio enhances the overall thermal performance of the CPCSWH.

The influence of the twisting steps of twisted pairs of horizontal LAN cables of category 6 on the primary and key secondary parameters of the electrical transmission medium of infocommunication systems is investigated. The primary parameters are investigated, which make it possible to determine the secondary parameters of a symmetrical conductive path: wave impedance and attenuation coefficient. It is shown that, with respect to a twisted pair with the smallest twist pitch, it is expedient to apply the high-frequency model to calculate the electric transmission path.

Heat transfer and friction factor characteristics are studied for water flowing through the tube in tube heat exchanger for two different configurations, namely,(1) twisted tape with pins (TTP) and (2) twisted tape with pins bonded to the inner surface of the test section (TTPB). Experiments are carried out for different twist pitch to the width of the twisted tape ratios (y/w) for TTP and TTPB. But very few research works have been done based on the above mentioned heat transfer enhancement techniques. This paper presents the effect of twisted tape with pins on the heat transfer for a fully developed turbulent flow. Experiments are conducted by maintaining constant wall temperature. The heat transfer rate and pressure drop is found to be high for TTPB of y/w=3.33 when compared to all other configurations. The empirical correlations developed for different twisted tape with pins results in ?7.28% deviation for Nusselt number and ?7.16% for friction factor.
